Ropin Steers & Shiftin Gears June 8th in Richfield The folks in Richfield are gearing up for their annual Outlaw Day to be held this weekend. On Friday, June 7th, the Main Street Bar & Grill will host the Alumni Dance starting at 9:00 p.m. In the morning (Saturday) be sure to get up early for the community breakfast at 7:00 a.m. and find the perfect place to watch the parade which will begin at 9:30. The arena events will take off at noon (just west of town) followed by the mud bog races. There will be something for everyone to enjoy. After all the excitement, take time to slow down, slip on your dancing shoes (or boots), and get ready to swing your partner at the street dance starting at 9:00 p.m. Everyone is welcome to come and visit the great little town of Richfield located just 16 miles east of Shoshone.

Fish, Fish, Fishin’ The weather was great for last weekend’s Fishing Derby Fairfield, and the banks of the Kid’s Pond were crowded with kids of all ages. Fifty-two young fisher-people came out to throw their lines in the water (some with a little help from mom and dad) and 105 fish were taken home. Thanks to all the volunteers who came out to help, the 6th Annual Fishing Derby was a great family event for everyone.
Idaho Fish & Game would like to remind our young people that fishing does not have to be a one-day event. Fishing is a fun sport that can be enjoyed all summer long. To see a list longest, shortest, youngest, and who caught their limit, goto page 8.....
